VEGETABLE UNIVERSAL FILLS,
IT is tfenemlly known I hut my Grandfather was the
original inventor of these reumrkiiMn pills.
llu was it scictiliiicmn. and a medical practitioner
of the Old School, lint heroming alarnietl at the mor
tality tliut attended the ltleediutr and Mineral Prac
tice, he turned his attention to the study of uutureaud
the philosophy of disease, as also to the natural reme
dial ucut which he found to exist exclusively in the
Vciffliible Kinidoiu. In us researches mid nivesti-
(fiitions, he hecutne fully salislied that the life wus in
thohlood; that hy wha'tevur tmnie discuses wero dis
tinenishetl, impurity of the hlood whs the source of
all a si in pie and truthful doctrine, which, in reducing
till diseases to a unit, necessarily established the tact
t tint all wern to be treated on the same uenerul prin
ciples, viz: hy purgation.
Now the jjrand difficulty consisted in devising u' veg
etable compound that would invigorate, purify, and
cleanse the blood, correct and regulate all llio'diller
et"i secreiions. aim by purKatton (tiscnargn ttie wtioie
mass of morhid mutter from tlio body, without retluc
iiig the Htreiiiiih. After thirty years' of close applica
tion, he considered his object 'fully accomplished in
the production ol there pills, which have now been
before the public One Hundred and Fourteen Yeurs.
and it is now (IHtiO) Hourly .11 years since Dr. Bran
drulh's 'ectablo Universul Life Pruservhw 1'ilU
were tirst preser.ten to Ibe American public duniiK
which time their superior excellence and virtues have
been extensively proclaimed hv naners and PuinnhletH.
und a rapid yearly increase of the sule of them ef
lecteii.
1 know what will save life, to know what will
restore health, is a knowledge not to he hithlen, I,
ibetvtore, as a man desiring to do my duty faithfully,
have dotted down some of my thirty-live years' exe
r it-u re with Hruudreth's Pills, widen are 'an etfecluul
assistant of nature, and cause tho expulsion of itrri
uioniotis humors the occasion of every sickness. 11
us ndniit that corrupt humors prevent the free circula
tion of the blooil, that Hruudreth's Pills lake out
these humors, giving health fur pain, and strength lor
weakness.
No man is sick save whon the principle of corrup
ton trets the nscendcucv: Hriimheth'n Pills aid the
Lifo Principle to regain the empire by removing the
corrupt humors from the body. Many a timo 1 have
seen life apparently at the last ebb, when these Pill
were given, and in a few hours the danger was past,
and health's Hood i ide gave the patient renewed life
and vigor. Many uru the lathers, mothers, sons, and
daughters, thus saved.
These celebrated I'illsare composed wholly of me
dicinal herbs, and do not ootitain any mercury or other
mineral, being perfectly harmless to the most tender
aire or weakest fratne;vet sure to search out tlie cause
of sickness, and restore the health if taken according
to the directions.
IjCt no one iunnine thev art too weak to bear the
chVct of theso Pills, which put no weakness into the
I mine, (mt draws weakness out. A tew doses will he
gel confidence, and then the beauties of purgation will
gradually become unfolded to cur view, which, en
forced with Hr.mdreth's Vegetable UnivciKul Pills, is
able to cure every disease where the organs aro sound,
und greatly Increase tlie avcrago of human life.
I have now used on my own (tenton, and prepared
and uduiiniBtered, Hruudreth's Pills for thirty-live
year. I believe they are the best purgative in the
world; and with this' medical (inulitv they have also
a tunic elici t. And us I am of the linn opinion that
iiiHammatiou and fevers are caused hy corrupted
blrtod not being timely evacuated, because it regurgi
tates, so to speak, over the whole body, und thus cor
rupts the sound hlood lha. should mitiri-.li tl ili mcin
liers, and actually destroys and paralyzes members or
organs tnai are unsound; una ns l know Unit Ittese
Pills have a direct effect to remove alt corrupt blood
aad acrimonious humors from the body iu fact, all
humiirs below the vital standard of health; sol should
be guilty of a urcnt sin, did I not do all iu my power
to propauatu the use of a medicine which is possessed
of properties so calculated to save and increase the
average of human lite.

WILLAMETTE VY00LKX MASIKU'TIKIXO
CUMrAST.
After whnt wo en id in a fnrmer unrulier of
this imper, in rcguid to llio liutinesa nnliov
ailnpteii hy the nbnve named Company, it ia
declined an act of justice to ninny of Oregon's
most -worthy citizens, to eay the Willainotto
Woolen Mnnmiiaturing Company ia nut now
oomposoa oi tne tame men niio laid its fuandn
lions as a business enterprise.
Tlie enterprise, was tot on foot (in tho main)
by public epirited farmers, joined by othera who
law in itgeainmisnnient a pulilio good a menus
nf developing the wotl-rnising resources of llio
country ; of encouraging the settlement of nr
lizuns an part of our permanent pniinlalion
a measure of publio econonir which would
save to Oregon nil the expenses of shipment of
wool to tne eastern loaiioam, its ruslnpmnnt
back again as ololli or clothing, nnd tho profits
uenveu ny tne snipping moruliant In tins rtiti
tiuo of trade. These transportation expenses
wero deemed amply snfiiaiciit to insure the en
terprise against a failure arising from the
higher rate of wages expeotod to be paid to
operatives Here, aim tne sieaii additnrnnl cost
of importing dye-stalls.
Tho design was well understood by all olassos
of men. And in any merchants und publio men
gave it their aid by counsel nnd fulr speech,
while others look single shares of its stock from
the pure desire to help it along. It was so
generally popular that its projectors found no
difficulty in eettimra charter from the Torri.
torial Legislature, tthioh tho most ardent of
them ileemetl suffiattitlv liberal.
There is no need here and now to say w ho
the original company were : it is sufficient to
say that there is but one of its ardent early
friends left, and be, though its President, is
perfectly powerless in ilinoinir its business no -
icy whore tho views or designs of the other
memners cntillict Willi his.
The chartered privileges of the company, in
regard to brineimr the water from tho Smitnim
river down tho valley of Mill creek, gave rise
to various law suits between it ami outside par
ties, iu whioh tho law firm of Smith & 0 rover
were employed us counsel. And it is presum
able, that it was the Insight gained into the nf
loin und privileges of tho company during these
suits, which induced those two genllemeu to
buy into the company to such an extent as to
become witli the aid of W. K. Smith (brother
of J. S.) nnd John V. Miller, complete con
trollers of its nlluirs, as much to as if they wero
the sole owners.
We havo noted this change of ownership of
uio inciory aim its water privileges Willi some
apprehensions. They were ullnyed hy the pro
fessions of lha man wo regarded, nnd still re
gard ns the lending man of the four we have
uumed, and the practice of tho company iu its
dealings two yinrs ago. lis dealings then
wore something like just and liberal, and were
producing all the efecli calcu luted upon by the
pioneer proprietors.
From tho position which three of tho fen
tlemen we have named havo ooctipied as public
men in in mo inieiin nscrilicd to them as
such by their friends it was reasonable to ex
pect Mint the properly thus coming under tiieir
control, while it should bo managed so us to
puy goou interest upon the investment, would
also be managed in a manner consistent with
tho character claimed fur the malingers as
Statesmen capable of filling the highest offices
of the Stntc Willi himor capable nf seeing
their own highest interests in the greatest gen
eral good which could be made to How from
what we havo shown was tho spirit of llio en
terprisu they now control. They know, that
by llio encouragement induced in part hy the
success of the factory, many of the yeomanry
of Oregon have been devoting their labor and
means almost exclusively to wool griming for
the past four rears. And that Iher have rnent
their money freely in order In zet tho best
stock ol tho different breeds of sheep .fur ( hnt
purpose. Thnt to pursue their business suc
cessfully, it is neot ssnry thnt they shot: Id keep
pace wilh the general intelligence of tho times
with the progress of improvements iniulo in
mnnuiaciures, so ns to lie alilc to turnisli ma
terial nf tho most suitahlo kind for llie manu
facturers use. They should know, that I he
farmers of Oregon are nut Mexican or South
American 1'enns, satisfied to tend flacks from
the beginnm" to the end of their lives, und lie
always in debt at tlie store." A. E.

back und very briefly follow tho course of the
armies from the time lliey left Petersburg.

Appomattox and moved wctlwtirdly with great
rapjdity, while Grant followed with part of his
force directly in Lee's rear, and with llio ro-niiiindi-r
ol his infantry and .Sheridan's cavalry
he struck nut parallel wilh, it ml on Imili sides
of the .Soulhside railroad, for lliirkesville, filly,
three miles west of Petersburg, where tlie
IMuville mail crosses the Southmilo road. Hy
llio most herculean efforts, the troops being
cheered by the prospect off tho rebel retreat,
our lorces reached lintkesviile first, and the
Danville railroad was no longer available to
Lee. In the meantime Sheridan had must
sorely harassed Lee's several retreating col
umns, and at Harper s lurin. on 1 htirstlny nf
teriiooii lust, w itli the assistance of the Fifth
and Sixth Corps, completely cut off and cap
tured Kwell s entire column of nine .thousand
men, several general officers, fifteen fit-Id
pieces of artillery, twenty uinu battle-lings,
ami six miles of wngou trains.
J healetails of this engagement are fnrwaid-
ed by our correspondent, Cnptuin Paul, who
witnessed it. As yon may see liy (he map, the
Appomattox west of Petersburg- is a Terr
crooked stream, and list oiiiuy tributaries, the
country being rough and hilly. Lee was Com
pelled to keep mainly north ol tho stream, on
the line of the old Stale mad from Lynchburg
to lEichtnond.
After reaching Hurkesville, fJenernl Meade,
with llio greater portion of the Army of the
Potomac, tiHtk up the pursuit on the mirth tide
of the railroad, while Sheridan's cavalry and
Ord's Twent-yfourth Corps innvetl rapidly

pelling him In halt and form line ol bailie, and
as often engaging him, cutting off detachments,

from a point about twenty miles enst ol Lynch

suit was too hot, Lee's rear and flanks were
so sorely oppressed that he was compelled to
skirmish nearly ovory step aud to destroy or
abandon an immense amouiitof proportv.while
Sheridan was rapidly shooting ahead of him.
The position, thercforo, on Sunday morning,
was ono from which Loo could not nostiblr ex
tricate himself. His army lay massed a short
tustanoo west ol Appomattox Court-house ; bis
last avenue of cscupo toward Danville on the
southwest us gone ; ho was completely hom'd
in. Meade was on his rear and on his right
Hank uorth of Appomattox Court-house;
Miicridan Had Iieatled hnu oil completely hy
getting between him and Lvnehburir : General
Ord was on the south of the Court-house, near
the railroad ; the troops were in tho most en
thusiastio spirits, and the rebel army was
doomed. Loe's lust clfort to escape was made
en Sunday morning, by attempting to out Ids
way inrougu siierulou's lines, but it totally
failed.
It will bo seen that Gen, Graut'i first letter
to Leo was dated on the 7th (Friday), llie day
of the battle of Farmville. and thu onrre.non.
deuce was kept np during the following day
anil up to eleven o'clock on Sunday, as already
published. In response to General Grant's last
letter General Lee appeared ou tho picket liue
nf the Second Corps, Miles' division, with a
letter addressed to General Meudo, ret nesting
n ucssiiiinti oi iioHtuitici while no considered
ral Grant's terms of surrender. General
Monde replied Hint he had no authority to n.
cede to the request, but that he would wait two
nonrs neloro malting an attack. In the menu
time General Grant sent word to General
Meado that he would he un in half nn hour and
the n atter was thrued over to him. A flag of
iruoo proceeded to Appomattox Court-house
shortly after noon, nnd about two o'clock p. m.
llio two Generals met at the house of AVilmer
McLean. General Lee was attended by Gen.
Marshal, and his Adjutant General s General
Grant by Colonel Parker.one of his chief Aids-de-Camp.
Tho two Generals met nnd greet-
eu eiien tuner wiiii uigmiied courtesy, nnd pro
ceeded at ouoo to the business before) them
General Lee immediately alluded to tho con
ditions of the surrender, characterized them at
exceedingly lenient, and said ho would irla.llv
leAve all the details to General Grant's own
discretion. General Grant stated tlie terms of
the parole ; that the arms should be stacked,
tlie artillery piirktd, nnd (ho supplies and mu
nitions turned over to him, tho ofliovrs retain
ing.tlieir si e arms, horses aud personnl effects.
General Lee promptly assented to the condi

their own horses. Gehernl Grant said he con
strued it to mcun that tho horses must bo turn

Lee ndmilled the correctness and Inst
ness of the interprelulion, when General Grunt
said lie would iiistruut his olhcers to allow those
men who owned their horses to retain llieiu, as
lliey would need them for the purpose of tilling
Iheir farme. General Leo expressed n great
sense oi graiiiuoo mr such a generous consid
eration, ami said it would havo a very trond ef
fect. Ho 8ubsciiienlly expressed a hope that
encu soiiiier migiii no niruished Willi a cerltli
cule of his parole, as evidence to prt'vonl him
from being forced Into the army until regularly

suggestion, nnd the priming presses were soon
put to work to print the documents reiiiitetl.
In regard to the strength nf the army. Gen.
Lee said he had no idea of the number of men
that he should bo able to deliver np. There
lind been so ninny -engagements, nnd such
heavy losses from desertion and other causes

mude since leaving Petersburg) hut it in gen
orally believed by the hi-et informed officers'
llint Leo surrenders eighteen or twenty thous
and men. Of the army burses, wngons, etc.,
there is yet no ollicial account. Generul Lee
informed General Grant that his men were
short of provisions, whereupon General Grant
ordered twenly live thousand rations to be dis
tributed to them. Thus sohstuutiully ended
llie interview, llolli Generals wero ihe very

It should be said that General Grant had an
ticipated tho surrender for several days, and
hud resolved beforehand not to retiuiro the
sumo formalities which aro required in a sur

tions or belligerent Powers; that they were

After the iutervisw. General Leo returned to
his own camp, about half a mile distant, where
his leading officers were assembled nwniliug

faction at the leniency of the conditions. They
then approached him iu order of rank, shook
bond., expressing great satisfaction at his course
antl their regret at parting, all shedding tears
on the occasii n.
The fact of surrender aud liberal terms were
then announced to tht troops, and when Gen.
Lee appeared among them he was loudly
cheered. On Monday, between nine ami ten
o'clock, A. M , General Grant and Staff rode
out in the direction of the rebel lines, and on
a hill just beyond Ihe Court-house, where a
full view nf the rebel army c old bo obtained,
Geui-ral x was met, atlumlud by but oue
Stuff officer anil orderlies. The Generals
hailed, and, teatetl on their horses, conversed
for nearly an hour upon the prospects of ihe
future, each seeming to realixe the mighty in-'
fiuenco which tho events of the present were
to have upon it. General Lee signified very
emphatically bit desire for a total cessation of
hostilities, and indicated his iuteuiion to do nil
iu his power to effect that end. The best of
good feeling prevailed, and this w as the last
interview between the two commanders. Gen,
Grant returned to McLean's house, am toon

TIIE MIKUER OK DANIKL DELAXET, 8r.
Conftuixloii of tteorge Baker.
About the middle of December last was the
first timo that anything wat laid between Beale
and myself about robbing old man Dolauey.
About that lime, Iteale said to me in bit sa
loon, iu Salem, that he knenr where there
was an old man that had a great deal of money,
aud that we could go and get it very easily ;"
to whioh 1 made no teply. A few days after
this, 1 went into his saloon again, when ho said
that it wns old man Delaney he bad referenoe
to, and that we could go aud rob him and no
one would ever know anything about It. 1 stilt
made no reply to what he said about the mat- '
tor, Koine two duyt after this time, I was
ugain in his saloon, when ho agaiu proposed
the same mntter. and said that if I would leave
tlie management ef the matter wilh him, we
could get the money and never be fnund out,
or that no one would sutpeot who did it.
About this time, I wat ttronglv in the notion
of enlisting as a soldier, but Beale told me that
be hud a better thing fnr ma, and persuaded
mo out .of tlie nation of enlisting. A short
time alter this interview, Beale went out to his
farm, requesting me lo oome out lbs next day
to avoiil suspicion, saying it would not do for
us hoih tu go together. I did not go out, nor
agree to go out. When Beale oame book, be
approached me in this style i " You are a d d
pretty fellow, not to come out as yon agreed to;
to have a man travel there and back for noth
ing." Next morning after the Inst conversation, I
called in at Beale's saloon, and I agreed to ro
with liuu to Delauey's after bis money. We
agreed upon this plan : Beale was to go out on
Sunday to Mr. Taylor's, and stay over night,
aud 1 agreed In meet hi in next day at Hector's
bridge, ou Mill creek. On Sunday morning,
before leaving, Beale gave me e bottle of
whisky, telling me lo bring itoot next day, and
told me to bring some small rope to tie the old
man with. Alter meeting at iieotor't bridge,
we proceeded to Dchiiiey't, as publitbed here
tofore iu the Or man Statesman, arriving on the
hill, a short distance above Delaney's house,
at the plaoe testified to in eon rt where lht horse
was hilehrd, at about half-past roar, p. u.
Iteale asked me if I had brooght the rope. I
told hitu 1 had no rope bet the one I had for
lasa rope ou my saddle. Left my horse, went
down near the house, eat down In some under
brush in llio timber, aud watched the maneu
vering of lbs old man, and drank wblskr. Beale
persuading mo to drink plenty ef whisky, to
that I would have good oourage, and then there
would be uo back out iu me.
At lint time and plaoe Deals told me that he
bad been there four or live times before that
aloiis, and watched Ihe old man, but eould not
get a good chance at him. or something of that
kind. About half past five o'clock. Beale and
I weut back to where tM horse was hitched
and saw ha was all right, and returned imna
diutoly t stopping at a pool of water and black
ed our faces frum some lamp black that Beale
look from hit pocket. We then proceeded to
the honse, or gut near the bouse. Beats then
hallooed " halloo," tome three or four times,
aud the eld man cams out Heals laying to
In hi that he was a stranger In the eountry, and
had got lotl in the faille iu trying; to Dud the
road to Duncan's, and wished tbe old man to
direct bun. At this lime it was gelling qails
dark. At the eld man neartd us. Beats spoke
lo me iu a low tune of voice, saying two er
thret.. limes, "Shoot." ''Shost," whioh I did
with oue barrel nf my shot-gun, and ths old
man fell open his bauds and inses. Tbe dor
coming out toward us, I lired tbe other barrel
at bun. The old man, in the mean time, got
up nnd started toward the house and fill for
waid. Heals got over the fence, ran up to the
old man and shot twice at him with a pistol.
When Beale started for tbe old man, a litlle
negto boy standing close by, ttartsd aud ran
lulu tbe bouse, locking aud laslsuiug the door
